But it was his remarks regarding the welfare of OFWs in Taiwan that prompted a backlash here, particularly among the country’s legislators.“Unfortunately, some misquoted or misinterpreted Ambassador Huang’s remarks or simply took part of the Ambassador’s words out of context,” said the embassy, which also referred the media to the original text of the speech, as posted on its website on Sunday afternoon.
He cited last month’s Bilateral Consultation Mechanism on the South China Sea held in Manila as among the discussions through which the two countries are finding ways to handle their differences.That meeting was led, among others, by Foreign Undersecretary Theresa Lazaro and visiting Vice Foreign Minister Sun Weidong.
On Sunday, Hontiveros issued a statement advising the diplomat to leave the Philippines and urging Malacañang to ask Beijing to immediately recall its ambassador. Hontiveros also said it was China that “has been stoking tensions” in the South China Sea by laying claims on areas that belong to other countries.
